P1 is always a "correct" answer but this data says there is a three fold axis. Twinning generates an apparent 2 fold in the diffraction pattern, and with four of the five molecules obeying that 2fold, and twin factors 0.56/0.44 that will appear pretty exact..
And the NC transl;ation disguises the twin analyses.. So it isnt as weird as Mitti first thought .. Eleanor (I have seen this behavior before - we processed data as I422 then realised about 15% of the residues could not obey the 4 fold axis, and we had to back off to I222...)
